I am optimistic minus the establishment of the current political scenario.I am optimistic minus the violent maoists and their ruthless war-tactics.I am optimistic minus the institution of monarchy in Nepal.I am optimistic minus the corrupt leaders of political parties especially the india-driven congress and its despotic leadership.I am optimistic minus the dogmatic beliefs and the blind crowd that are so afraid to change their mindset( sati curse included).I am optimistic minus some royal missionaries that we have to encounter at this site quite often.That does make an optimist Nepali,I believe.
